#1: Gti 180 gear selection Author: mattymj, Location: NorfolkPosted: Mon May 12, 2014 3:13 am ---- Hi all.
I'm just wondering if the 180s cable selectors can wear out or is there a way to reset/realign it all?
I know on a vauxhall I had you could use a drill bit to lock the selector in position to realign it all.
If I use reverse it can be hard to get the gear stick back out and going into 5th can be a little vague.
Its had a new clutch new gearbox oil so the only thing I'm wondering is the selector.
Thanks

#4: Re: Gti 180 gear selection Author: lisaskye, Location: AustraliaPosted: Tue May 13, 2014 4:42 am ---- I'm also interested in this topic as I have similar play in my gear selector.
Does anyone have a guide for the replacement of the selector cables etc to ensure correct alignment before and after removal.

Only 3 bolts to remove the selector. There's another bolt on the top of the selector which allows the cylindrical part to all seperate. This houses two delicate gaskets so be careful.A little more greasing in there to make it all silky smooth.

did you have to drop it from underneath?
